MercurArt

6 areas of interest: the 21 works (sculptures or installations), the architectural arrangements relating to Arts and Crafts, the poetry presented from bench to bench, the botanical collections including its 100 varieties of roses, the great diversity of the fauna filmed and photographed and finally the technological aspect.
Jean-Claude Millet, creator of the garden, is also an Academician of Technology and he shares his work relating to the riches of this space.

A mission-driven SAS carries Mercurart's project to produce a work under the aegis of aesthetics, a discipline conceptualized by Jean-Claude Millet. It involves a way of thinking, a way of being, and a way of doing. It applies both to the intention of the work and to the work itself.
She never separates beauty from goodness, whatever the fields from which she draws her practices: the Arts, literature, Science, technology...
She and Joël Paubel developed the idea of ​​a greenhouse for growing virtual plants such as: "the flowers of Compassion, the trees of Altruism, the oaks of Fraternity, the poppies of the Sermon on the Mount and the roses of Confidence."
She prefigured a virtual scale that weighs Equality by placing Liberty on one side and Fraternity on the other.
But, "Everything that is measured is deprived of the reality that is not measured." So, far from the conformist technological projects of adventurers of the conquests of external territories which call into question the homeostasis of the planet, the Mercurart garden and its places of residence are a space of artistic and technological creation turned towards the progress of man going towards Man.
